Thank you to everyone who voted for us - ‘Time To Float’ currently the NO1 game in both the UK & Ireland! 🙏 🤡 🎈

🇬🇧 The Ranked Playlist UNITED KINGDOM has been updated!

Over several visits to the UK, I’ve played 173 escape rooms from 61 different providers - and this latest edition reflects not just my own experiences, but also the collective insight of the wider escape room community.

As always, I invited fellow enthusiasts and bloggers to share their opinions. The final ranking brings together the votes of 63 participants from five countries each of whom has played an average of 68.7 games from this playlist.

A huge thank you to everyone who contributed! 🙌

Coming February 2026…

The Collector:

When a powerful relic is stolen from a church in Eastern Europe the trail leads to an abandoned religious complex on Winetavern street Belfast.

Having been discontinued in the early 90’s, the facility is now said to be operated by a dealer of rare antiquities - known as ‘The Collector’.

Your team have been tasked with infiltrating the compound and retrieving the relic at all costs.

But beware - local news reports suggest a number of people have disappeared recently in that area. We are uncertain as to whether this is connected but strongly urge you remain vigilant!
